Your device takes action, but the network tags packets that get delayed and sends that information to the sender, which requires network support.

I'm sure someone once said that about 120V wiring, and about POTS. We can't anticipate what will be obsolete. But fifty feet of ethernet cable or single strand fiber is quite cheap and easy to install during construction. Honestly

There’s a terrifying thought. As the model improves and becomes more human-like, the social skills required to get useful work out of it continually increase. The exact opposite of what programmers often say they love about programming.

Sure, the mother would always be with the other women, but she would at least be able to nap. Modern parenting of small children operates by the maxim, sleep when the child sleeps ; as there is no one else to look after them. (This is much

Given independent invention is apparently not a defense against infringement, that makes a lot of sense. I can’t even imagine trying to screen the codebase for that.

Carbon taxes need a good story for what happens to the tax revenue. Most of the time, advocates want to siphon the revenue into their pet cause, or pay off private interests. This makes an already bitter pill dead on arrival. I usually figu
